steven and i agree it's actually a good time to buy real estate. that said, there are investors coming in to buy real estate, buying single family properties either renovating out of foreclosure or building it and then renting it. when you flip to buy, you have far less multipliers. let's face it, renters are harder on property rather than owners, so the multiplier is less. but we're also not seeing the real comeback on single family housing starts that we'd like to see to see the jobs you really want to see. that's one of the reasons the fed picked mortgage-backed securities to purchase and try to help that market, and i think that's important to remember right now. >> let's take this over to don for a second. don, you're the guy who can explain in very clear terms for my audience how it is that the combination of low interest rates and low property rates and a boom in housing, how much of a relationship that has to job creation. i think there may be still some people in this country that don't get what a big deal that is. tell me how you end up c

i want to ask steven moore something here. i think all three of us -- there are four ever us. forget my math. all four of us agree on this haut. why is it that's not why mitt romney says he can create 12 million jobs over four years. he talks almost exclusively about lowering taxes to spur job growth. i have a suspicion you actually agree with him on that. >> i know you've been skeptical of that number. i think it's very achieve scrabble. as you noted with that chart that you were showing even though we have had 5 million new jobs over the last four years, do you realize we're still about 4 million jobs short of where we were in 2007. so we still have a lot of ground to be made up. in fact we should be growing the labor force and employment by about double the rate that we are. if we pick up the pace we should be at and keep that for four years i really do believe 12 million jobs is achievable. my goodness we did that in the 1980s under a republican president, ronald reagan and a democratic president bill clinton. >> and gdp was 4.8%. 4.5% in one case. 4.3%. i can find economi

. >> with the assassination of chris stevens, u.s. ambassador, looks like that could be an issue in the election. should mitt romney make it one? >> that's the question, brooke. as you know politico's done some great reporting as there's real tension in the romney camp as to capitalize on the issue or just stay on the economy. it's the economy, stupid. but obviously the attack in libya has become a hugely politicized issue. you can see it from both sides. today the chairman of the house oversight committee came out with a letter saying that the united states government had denied repeated requests for more security at the consulate in benghazi and listing 13 incidents that had happened over the past six months that he thinks were warning signs that were ignored. so he's going ahead with that. and he's going to bring congress back to have hearings next week on this issue. no question this has become a political issue and in terms of hearings, coming at a very bad time for president obama and the democrats. >> something to look for poss
